Steven’s story is a beacon of hope, illustrating how surrendering substances can open the door to a manageable and fulfilling life. He explains the psychological and physiological toll of addiction, highlighting the power of complete abstinence. Despite knowing the consequences, addicts often continue using substances due to cravings and irrational behavior. The only solution, Steven emphasizes, is total abstinence.
